@RusBradburd @starryboy14 @warriors_bc @coachdowling1 It has to start somewhere. It started with you.

My old team in Tralee took about ten minutes to recover after I left in 2004 and they keep winning. @starryboy14 @warriors_bc @warriors_bc @coachdowling1 Great win for the lads...Up Kerry, like!

@RusBradburd @AontroimGAA @malodoherty @starryboy14 This makes the turn of events depicted in Paddy on the Hardwood even more astonishing.

Hard to exagerate how important Gaelic sports are to Irish culture. This photo speaks volumes @AontroimGAA @pour_man @malodoherty @starryboy14

Here's another insightful piece by @RusBradburd, this one about the road to the Hall of Fame for @HardawaySr, and El Paso's complicated history of race and hoops. elpasomatters.org/2022/09/25/ute…

I'm loving The Angel of Rome, the new short story collection by @1JessWalter.

Got some ink in @pour_man's fine article about Jesuit-educated authors. I bet some of you didn't know I was a Bluejay & then went to G-town law? In any case, thanks, Michael Austin, & a fine 2023 to you. AMDG & all that. #WritingCommunity
